“Again!” Everly liked the bright stinging on his cheek and the way theclap!echoed in the quiet room. And he loved how full he felt and the tingling friction in his passage as he slid back and forth. They were already so wet and hot but Everly wanted more.

“Like this?” Bryn asked.

There was another sharp clap as Bryn slapped Everly’s bottom and he nodded quickly, bracing his hands on the bed in front of him and bouncing faster. “Again!” he begged, thrilling at the slickness leaking from his hole and onto his sac. He was stretched so tight around Bryn’s shaft, he felt every slide and every burst of wet heat between them.

“Fuck! You feel so good, Ev!” Bryn said through clenched teeth and sat back, his hips bucking in time with the rise and fall of Everly’s ass.

“Yes! I feel so good!” he agreed, breathless and almost delirious as his nerves flickered and pleasure swirled in his groin.

“Touch yourself. Come for me,” Bryn ordered raggedly and Everly nodded as he gave his cock a few strokes and let go. He wanted to come quickly so he could watch and taste Bryn.

He came again a moment later, a rush of hot, dazzling joy that had him sobbing Bryn’s name. Everly slid free and turned on shaking arms and legs, still tingling as he opened wide and swallowed every inch of Bryn he could manage.

“Yes!” Bryn’s fingers tangled in Everly’s hair and cupped his cheek. “Oh, Ev! Please! I’m gonna—!” He tried to pull back just as cum erupted all over Everly’s tongue. Everly grabbed the base as it swelled and sucked with feral abandon, causing Bryn to thrash and whimper. “Fuck, Ev! Fuuuuuck!” he howled, his head snapping back as he shivered through another tremor and Everly was treated to one more tart burst of cum. “Fuck!” Bryn laughed breathlessly as he fell forward, pulling Everly with him and to the pillows. “You okay?” he asked, nuzzling the corner of Everly’s neck.

“I’m okay! Want to do it again?”

Bryn shushed loudly and shook his head, the arm around Everly growing heavier. “I’ve barely closed my eyes since we got back. Don’t wake me until sunrise unless it’s an emergency, Ev.”

“Got it!” Everly vowed and snuggled up to Bryn, prepared to guardhimwhile he slept for once. “It’s my turn,” he whispered, then yawned and rubbed his eyes as the lids grew heavier. “Gonna watch…” Everly smothered another yawn, smiling drowsily. “...over you now.”

Acheerfully optimistic mood had come over the townhouse in the aftermath of the mission to Pooles Island. Everyone greeted each other with warm smiles as they gathered for coffee and oatmeal in the kitchen and Nox topped the happy morning off with an update from their patient.

“Tony just called and he survived the night with Ronan and already sounds so much better,” he announced, causing the kitchen to erupt into cheers and whistles. He coughed and Nox grimaced sheepishly. “I also got a call from Ronan and boy, is he pissed! But he’s taking care of Tony and expects him to make a full recovery in a few days.”

“Thank goodness!” Everly had declared, earning a humph from Merlin.

“Thank the merrow, for once.”

Bryn was just grateful in general. Like Everly, Bryn had felt an extra sense of responsibility for bringing the anti-Everly to Georgetown and the harm that had been done to Tony. But with Tony recovering, they could turn their attention back to Huge Douchebag and stop the anti-Everly.

Something would have to be done soon, before Hugh allowed his “pet” to attack another changeling or a human. It was agreedthat Merlin and Fletcher would continue their search while Nox got caught up with work at the university. Nelson had gone to help with what he could, leaving Arawn, Bryn, and Everly to their own devices.

The trio had spent the day teaching Everly some simple self-defense techniques and preparing dinner. Nox and Nelson had a semi-formal event to attend for faculty and wouldn’t be back until late, so it was taco night at the townhouse. Dinner was a success and they were just cleaning up when there was a commotion in the foyer. They all crowded into the hall to see what was going on and Merlin gasped as Nelson helped a pale, bruised, and battered Nox through the front door.

“What the hell happened?” Merlin demanded as they rushed into the hall.

Nox held up a hand, grimacing as he gestured at the study. “I’m fine. I just need to sit down for a moment. And a good glass of whiskey.” he said while Nelson guided him through the study doors and around the sofa. “This is why I hate going to those stupid faculty cocktail hours, Nelson.”

“No, it’s not,” Nelson said calmly, spotting Nox as he lowered onto the couch. “You hate them because you’re immature and impatient and no one kisses your ass unless the dean is looking.”

“I wouldn’t have been out this late if it weren’t for forced fraternization,” Nox muttered with a shake of his head, glancing at Bryn. “We ran into the anti-Everly.”

“It tried to take Nox’s soul,” Nelson ground out, placing a pillow under Nox’s left foot but he answered with a belligerent snort.

“It tried something, but I knocked the creepy little fuck back through the veil.”

“The audacity of this!” Merlin was turning red, his fists balled at his sides as he spluttered. “I will have Hugh Dùbhghlas’s head for sending that…jumped-up zombie child to harass a god. Andfor what?” He threw a hand at the door, disgusted. “I wouldn’t trust Hugh with a rock, I’m not surprised that this is how he would treat his ‘pet.’”

“Why risk it?” Bryn asked as he looked around. “He isn’t desperate so why send his pet abomination after Nox?”

That earned a dark look from Merlin as he shook his head. “To see if the sad little wretch could and to possibly rid himself of a pet project that has become a liability, is my guess. The Abhartach wins and gets rid of Lennox MacIlwraith or it is fried into oblivion and Hugh can pretend the whole episode never happened.”

“Except Nox flicked little Abhartach off like a flea,” Nelson replied, wincing. “After we were blindsided in the parking lot. We weren’t paying attention, just talking, when this child from my worst nightmare came out of nowhere and ran at Nox.”

“That wasn’t running!” Nox said with a hard shudder. “It moved like a broken marionette but at hyper speed and it stunned me for a moment, hissing and screaming like a teapot. The thing fought like it was possessed until I got a hold of it and launched it at the nearest brick wall. It disappeared and Nelson got us out of there as fast as he could.”
